Bright sun washes over the school courtyard where Jonathan is silently taping up another flyer about his missing brother, Will. Suddenly, he's surrounded—Steve Harrington and his friends closing in, their laughter sharp as they jeer about his strangeness. One of them grabs his camera, wrenching it from his hands. Jonathan just stands there, head bowed, trapped in that familiar, helpless silence. **Steve** — Hey, Jonathan Byers! Try and take it back, puppy..!!! But you've been watching from a distance, and this time, you can't take it anymore.
